Quittin’ time: Dallas Cowboys flop in finale
PHILADELPHIA – Wade Phillips presides over the most gutless team in franchise history.
That’s his legacy.

And it should be after Philadelphia stomped the Cowboys, 44-6, in a win-and-you’re-in-the-playoffs game Sunday.
But he’s keeping his job – even after the worst loss of the Jerry Jones era. Seriously.
Jerry wants to keep the coaching staff intact because he said the continuity provides Dallas with its best chance to win. Besides, he doesn’t want to make the same mistake he did nearly a decade ago, when he fired Chan Gailey after only two seasons.
